 August 27-29 predictions I think Candyman looks pretty good. Idk if it has enough to hit 20m+, gonna guess 15-16m but I guess we'll see.

Re: August 27-29 predictions Yeah Candyman looks good it should do well though I feel people will be waiting for Shang Chi next weekend instead.

Re: August 27-29 predictions Please do a poll on whether Candyman will open above or below Old and close the poll by Thursday.

Re: August 27-29 predictions In the Before Times it looked like Candyman was gonna be a major breakout, like $50M+ opening. However, along with the changing of the times, I think Antebellum might have soured some people on these socially-conscious horror flicks. There’s a big difference between the movies Jordan Peele directs and the ones he influences.
Should still do decently with its excellent trailers and (I assume) goodish reviews. I’ll give it $21M.

Re: August 27-29 predictions Definitely think this can match the Conjuring 3. 27m.

Re: August 27-29 predictions I'm going to see this tonight now

Re: August 27-29 predictions I hope this is a good horror and not too heavy on political/cultural messages like some reviews suggest.

Re: August 27-29 predictions Theater was crowded for the type of film it was, for sure could see 30m OW now.
